Winding Path of Faith

The Blood of Redemption and the Power of Belief

My name is Tony, I am not just a writer, but a fellow traveller on this winding path of faith. We are united by the invisible thread of belief, drawn together by the promise of something greater than ourselves.

At the heart of our journey lies the lifeblood of our faith – the blood of Jesus. It is a potent symbol, a crimson testament to the ultimate sacrifice, the offering that bridged the chasm between us and the divine. In its flow, we find not just forgiveness, but the very wellspring of life itself.

But God’s blessings are not limited to grand gestures. They whisper in the quiet moments, bloom in the unexpected corners of our lives. Remember the woman Jesus encountered, her life transformed by a seemingly ordinary encounter? The gift of the Holy Spirit, once reserved for select few, flowed freely, a testament to the boundless love of our Father.

Like the star that heralded Jesus’ birth, guiding magi from distant lands, our faith can be a beacon, drawing others to the light. When we remember our own conversion, the day we found ourselves in the right place at the right time, how can we not share that story, that whispered invitation to step into the grace of God?

Yet, amidst the whispers of promise, doubt can creep in. We hear statistics, see empty pews, and wonder if our faith is fading, a flickering candle in a gathering storm. But let us not forget the mustard seed, small and unassuming, yet destined to grow into a towering tree. Our faith, though seemingly insignificant, holds within it the potential for infinite power.

For what matters is not the outward show, the eloquent sermons or perfectly polished prayers. It is the fire that burns within, the unshakeable belief that even in the darkest hour, God will not forsake us. Remember Elisha, adding a touch of his own faith to the widow’s small offering, transforming it into a wellspring of abundance. We are not passive vessels, but co-creators in this divine dance.

And speaking of abundance, the blessing of God does not reside solely in material wealth. True prosperity lies in the richness of our souls, the peace that washes over us when we surrender to His will. Money may ebb and flow, but the wellspring of joy within us remains, an untouchable treasure safeguarded by our faith.

Forgiveness, too, is a key that unlocks untold blessings. We hold onto grudges, bitterness gnawing at our hearts, unaware of the chains we forge for ourselves. To forgive is not to condone, but to release ourselves from the prison of resentment. Let the blood of Jesus cleanse your soul, wash away the hurt, and allow the healing balm of His grace to mend the broken pieces.

And now, a word about the Holy Spirit. It is not a fleeting feeling, a momentary flicker. It is a firestorm, transforming us from within, shaping us into instruments of His will. Don’t be afraid to feel His touch, to surrender to His influence. It is in that surrender that we find our true purpose, our unique song in the grand symphony of faith.

Some of us wait, yearning for answers that seem to elude us. But remember, God’s timing is not ours. The seed may lie dormant, but its roots are growing in the darkness. Trust in His plan, for He sees the bigger picture, the tapestry woven with threads of joy and sorrow, triumph and tribulation.

Let us not compare ourselves to others, judging the size of our faith by the yardstick of another’s journey. The mustard seed and the towering oak both sprang from the same ground, nourished by the same sun. We are all unique branches on the same divine vine, each bearing fruit in its own season.

Finally, let us remember that our faith is not a passive possession, but an active verb. By serving our community, by extending a helping hand, by sharing the light within us, we become blessings, radiating the love of God into the world.

And just as Mordecai’s refusal to bow sparked a revolution, so too can our unwavering faith in the power of the blood of Jesus change the world, one heart, one act of kindness at a time. Don’t keep the blessing bottled up within you. Unleash it, share it, and watch as the ripples of your faith spread outward, transforming the world around you.

Today with hearts ablaze and spirits undaunted. Let the blood of Jesus be your shield, the Holy Spirit your guide, and your faith, your unwavering compass. The future may be uncertain, but our path is clear – guided by love, helped by belief, and forever bound by the power of the one who bled for us, redeemed us, and set us free.

May His blessings, received long ago, be renewed in in our lives.

HIS SPECIAL AGENT

HIS SPECIAL ANGEL/PERSON CAN HELP YOU.

We have short-term problems and long-term problems.

The day of our salvation was a solution to all our problems.

Jesus got up and went with them to solve their problems.

Rain is expected by hopeful farmers at certain times of the year.

No rain means no crops.

When it rains, they celebrate.

Jesus was able to help the people who were in need.

Your salvation experience came about by a similar process.

Many people over the years played a part in the message of salvation getting to you.

Forgiveness was released like rain.

Without changing any other factor, your sins were washed away.

You have a testimony, an example of someone that experienced his amazing grace.

We can lift our eyes and look back at our experience of receiving this grace.

Was the solution to our present problem given to us at an earlier point of time.

God given ideas can fill the void, they can occupy a vast area of space.

After the arrival of Europeans, the springs enabled early exploration of new land.

Try and take a step backwards and relax, someone is watching.

Now I have an answer for my all my old problems.

Because you get an exact score with every game you play in golf.
You can compete against the score you got the last time you played.

His guilt about all his wrong behaviour, was a weight lifted from his shoulders.

Look at the holy mountain and see Jesus with all the honour given by his Father.

Only when the answer was fully grown did it fully manifest.

Some people say, “Don’t trust your feelings.”

A few years ago, we had the worst drought on record.

It depends on who you talk to, but then the rain came and we had floods.

“God will bless today you and greatly increase your numbers.”

This can happen to us because we are Abraham’s spiritual children.

“God can command a new level of blessing and success.”

He was going to wear a mark on his body that would remind him and his wife of God’s kindness.

This is your time to act responsibly.

Sarina joined good mate and former US president Bill Clinton.
And a host of Hollywood A-listers, to help honour “our global citizens”.
A term to describe those leading the way on a range of fronts around the world.

Wherever you are, blessing and success can flow and turn the barren desert into a garden.

Now everyone can see and appreciate your talent for finding a way through tough times.

Faith and strong actions: not just weak words.

The son and daughter forgave their father for all his mistakes.

And he promised to protect them, through their college years.

You cannot change the past, but your new attitude can cast its shadow backwards.
In a way that colours the past, and influences our character for good.

His boss said to him, ‘If I have found favour in your eyes, please stay.
The Lord has blessed my business because of you.’

Because all our believing switches are on and no one can turn them off.

He jumped into the river of God’s blessing.

Her family had a gracious attitude and offered to repay any money that was stolen.
And repair any relational damage that had been done.

And from that day on they have been helping and assisting her.

Look back to the day you met “the person” who helped you to recover.

God will bless you and your family by sending his special angel.

THE CLOUD OF BLESSING

THE CLOUD OF BLESSING CAN STAY FOR YEARS.

The life of God is available and powerful.

Tomorrow our spiritual provision can appear in a slightly different way.

I saw my friend getting better recently; things have been working out for her.

She and others were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out.

When she recovered, her star was so bright that people from other nations could see it.

She remembers being in the right place at the right time.

I know the Lord and he will set me free.

No-one raised an eyebrow. It was normal, everyone was given their freedom.

Who expects freedom to suddenly emerge?

I have heard some claim that in our country,
less than 50% of “born-again” Christians attend church.

We are designed to operate the same way, all the controls are switched on.

Imagine if the shortage of supply lasted until now.

You were released from the empty way of life, handed down to you.

Now the results are stirring us to believe the next step is possible.

How does the blessing work?

If you are in a prosperous situation, it is the same blessing.

It does matter that God is supporting your project.

I call blessing every week into your house.

Forgiveness can be a key for all sorts of things.

Being filled with the Spirit, means coming under the blessing of the Holy Spirit.
And that means you can feel the blessing happening to you.
It is unmistakable when you have an encounter with the blessing of God.
There is an attitude in the church that says, “trust in his blessing.”

Without thinking we reply, “Provision is no problem!”

Sometimes the cloud of blessing stays on your life for years.

They were driving one day and suddenly received the blessing.

The book of Hebrews chapter 7 tells us that,
“The lesser person is blessed by the greater, because the blessing flows down.”

My thoughts go back to the American speaker in London.

He was inspirational.

You have been handed a key for a large increase of favour.

I want to leave you with this thought bubble:

Some people have been waiting for their answer and now it is surprising them.

It was the smallest of all good deeds, yet it grew and become the largest.

The older brother had a few issues with all the rules his younger brother had broken.

Some of us would feel that our faith is lacking, and others would feel that their faith is large.

Large faith says, “by serving the church I am a blessing.”

And may this blessing come back to you in all its fullness.

“DON’T KEEP ME WAITING.”

She came out of the desert a changed person and operated in a new level of success.

We can decide to add a little extra effort.

Some people are not discerning who Jesus is.
Or understanding how powerful He is.

“God blessing me, does not depend on my everyday words.”

In that statement was his friend’s miracle of blessing.

The Lord was gracious to this lady.
She became pregnant after being barren.
Over a period of years she became very successful.
During that whole time she was serving the Lord.

We can believe together for new opportunities.

But we also believe he gave us all that we will ever need.
We do not know what the future holds for our family or our friends.
He is able to provide ahead of time for all our personal needs.

But will we understand the wonderful idea of God’s provision?

By excluding the thousand loud voices of doubt.

You do not have to settle for second best if you understand his ways.

We refuse to hesitate when an opportunity passes by.

That could be God speaking to you.

The small still voice, that is so hard to hear.
